This week on The ALTER Tapes, Ryan and Joe discuss Janina Gavankar and Russo Schelling’s ‘Stucco‘ (2020). This well-paced short is giving pandemic vibes, relatable content with its yoga and chocolate imagery, and a fairly clear metaphor for guilt and isolation. Plus: those practical FX!

Premise: While hanging a piece of art in her new home, a woman knocks a hole in her wall, revealing what might be another room. Her mind races and unravels as she wonders what could be on the other side.
